Semper Fi

Today is Forget Me Not Day. Ironically I have to address the fact that I forgot yesterday's holiday, first. Sorry guys! Yesterday was Go To An Art Museum Today Day! Hopefully you all did that...

Okay! Today is Forget Me Not Day. It's a day to get in touch with people you've lost touch with. Pretty simple. Give 'em a card, mail them a packet of forget me not seeds or, lets just say it, facebook message them. Fun fact- Because of the shape of the stem and pattern of growth, it's not entirely uncommon for forget me not flowers to grow in a heart shaped pattern.

It's also the Marine Corps's 236th birthday. Semper Fi!  The birthday of the Corp is celebrated by Marines with birthday cake. The first piece is always given to the oldest Marine present who then passes it off to the youngest Marine present.
